Friday Headliner Poll

[Tranquility of Solitude]

Think Leftfield finishes early, so Billy Bragg and Ash doable.

[steviewevie]

Not really bothered...but knowing the people I'm going with it will be Four Tet or Maribou State

[bennyhana22]

Are we 💯 sure that Ash are headlining on the Friday? I really, really hope so as they are my one locked in headliner (if they're in that slot) and one of my top 3-4 acts (bands) of the whole festival. 
 

I'm just slightly concerned that Avalon is going to c*ck it up and out the Fratellis last on...

No idea yet … might wander and see what crops up following recommendation from @Supernintendo Chalmers

 

You won't regret it. Sack off all headliners and see where the night takes you...

Love how Glasto is such a different experience for everyone!  General feeling on here is that Friday night is a bit of a wasteland, and yet for me this has the makings of being the best night yet in 4 festivals.

 

Alanis > Biffy > 1975 is an unbelievable run for me.  All acts that I would pay to go to see anyway and yet I am going to get to see them one after the other on the Pyramid!  Puts the ticket price right into context right there

Agree with all of this up until 1975 - Friday looks like a cracking run for me from Supergrass onwards. I'm toying with either Maribou State, or just walking and getting lost in the night. I cannot waaaaaait.

[CaledonianGonzo]

Yeah - Friday is a 5 star day right up until headliners time when it absolutely falls to bits.

It would be a massive c*ck up, but something tells me it will be them instead of Ash 😕

 

If it is Ash, it'll be quite rammed... whether it'll be uncomfortably rammed to the extend that it'd put me off is yet to be seen.

[Stokesy10]

Need. Clashfinder. Now.

[Twiggy553]

God the singer of the 1975 seems like a right nobhead on stage

 

(not sure if he’s acting up or really like that all the time)

This was my plan until Self Esteem was confirmed subbing the Park. So now I'm a bit split between booting it up to Woodsies afterwards for Four Tet or do the shorter walk to Ash and hope I can get in the tent.

 

Will probably end up deciding on the day.

I really wanted to see Self Esteem too, but alas, she has fallen to the rave. 

[Ballian67]

1975 for me.  There with my daughter who has seen them since a small local band around Manchester.  She wont let me see anyone else, but to be fair, they have been v good when seen them in the past

Yep. Biffy is my Friday “headliner”. Heard The 1975 are excellent live, but just can’t get into many of their tunes. Might hang around the Pyramid field for a bit and if it’s not grabbing me I’ll head over to Avalon or to see FBS at Lonely Hearts.

[foolee]

Might start with 1975 and if not enjoying try for Ash but guessing I might need to do one or the other looking at this 🤔

[itsfomas]

Who do we feel is subbing pyramid on the Friday? Are we thinking it is Biffy? (Hoping so, so I can run off to the Park for some Self Esteem.)

[MEGABOWL]

Bit of Ash or Maribou State before an early dash for the SE Corner

If you would like any evidence that this place isn't representative of the wider Glastonbury going demographic, this poll is it.

honestly not sure any longer ... efest has an  older average age  id imagine but so does Glastonbury in terms of festivals 

[Guest]

Are they the options so far? 😬

it's looking a bit like the Saturday headliner last year, though not quite as bad.

Really hope this is the night I'm on shift. If not I'm dropping a gary and heading to floating points/four tet.

That sounds an excellent plan

He will most likely be on before Ash. Avalon headliners start later. FBS will be 9-9.30 , Ash will be about 10.30 or later

[Pipine]

I’m hoping to do Self Esteem then Ash but I’ve no idea who’s on when.. will Alanis clash with either of those?!

[BlackZeppelin]

I think we'll see Anohni at The Park

Guaranteed to be something amazing from them.

[Lubic]

If that’s the selection, it’s my least favourite headliner choice since the last time Biffy subbed. Back then I watched them, wandered up for the Arcadia show and caught the end of Justice.

 

Ash would be enjoyable for nostalgia value and a chance to experience a late night Avalon act, though wondering if Four Tet might be worth a gamble.

I think there is a possibility Self Esteem might clash with Alanis, but Self Esteem may clash with Biffy Clyro instead... it depends who subs the pyramid. 

[Jack H]

Self Esteem into Anohni will be magical
